<strong>Degenerate</strong> Parabolic Problems & FV Discretization Theoretical foundations Meshes, operators <strong>and</strong> scheme Discrete calculus & Convergence analysis<br />

Theoretical framework for <strong>parabolic</strong>-<strong>hyperbolic</strong> problems...<br />

Estimates easy to get (at least, formally) for approximate solutions:<br />

(existence) a priori bound on wh = A(vh) in L p (0, T; W 1,p<br />

0 (Ω)) (energy<br />

estimate) <strong>and</strong> weak compactness in L p for ∇wh = ∇A(vh)<br />

(existence) consequently, “strong compactness in space” for wh = A(vh)<br />

(Fréchet-Kolmogorov theorem)<br />

(existence) with the help of the evolution equation, “strong compactness<br />

in time” for uh = b(vh) (Fréchet-Kolmogorov)<br />

(uniqueness) very formally, given two solutions v,ˆv,<br />

multiply Eq(v)− Eq(ˆv) by sign + (v−ˆv); get <br />

Ω (b(v)−b(ˆv))+ (t) 0.<br />

(existence) Consequently, a priori L ∞ bound on uh = b(vh)<br />

(by comparison with constant solutions)<br />

Difficulties <strong>and</strong> hints to resolve them :<br />

(existence ?) No classical solutions =⇒ weak formulation<br />

(uniqueness ?) Non-uniqueness of weak solutions =⇒ selection by<br />

entropy inequalities (thus, entropy weak formulation )<br />

(uniqueness ?) Justify the formal calculation with “sign + (v−ˆv)” test<br />

function =⇒ doubling of variables following Kruzhkov (div F(v)) <strong>and</strong><br />
